Stanley Cup Final Dates

All games will be televised on SN, CBC and TVA in Canada. U.S. viewers can tune into TNT, TruTV or MAX. All games start at 8pm [ probably 8:20 after the player introductions, anthem etc.]  Wednesday June 4/Friday June 6 @ Edmonton. Monday June 9/Thursday June 12 @ Florida. Saturday June 14 @ Edmonton. Tuesday June 17 @ Florida. Friday June 20 @ Edmonton. My prediction. All seven games will be required. Who wins? I honestly don't know. Flip a coin. It will be close.

I really wish they could move things up when series end early. I realize arena availability is a concern but still.

Thanks to the ESPN's Spanish language broadcast announcers for the NHL, I will never call the Oilers anything but Los Petroleros again.

^I'm with you, "Los Petroleros" it is!

With any luck, Edmonton will be able to combine a Stanley Cup parade with a Canada Day parade.  Providing that Alberta doesn't leave Canada. 🤔

Remember when we called it Dominion Day? 😁

The NHL picked those dates so they won't go head to head with the the NBA Final which will be held June 5, 9, 11, 13, 16, 19 and 22.

Fascinating, I wouldn't think that many people pay attention to both but it makes sense. I pay little attention to either so I wouldn't know.

I only know one person who would watch both. Everyone else probably leans hockey.

Well certainly in Canada, there won't be much interest in the NBA. South of the border, there will be some interest in the Stanley Cup playoffs, particularly in Florida. I suspect zero interest in Indiana and Oklahoma as the Pacers and Thunder will decide the NBA Championship.
